Contracts, Commissioners and Funding Hub

We are running a series of bespoke workshops and webinars for chief executives and senior managers that will harness the expertise of expert trainers in an innovative way to support our members.

The funding pressures and commissioning environment is ever challenging and a key focus for our members. Therefore, we will be offering opportunities for members to connect, develop new tactics, hone influencing skills and plan how best to successfully approach negotiations with commissioners at the earliest opportunity.

Our Approach

Alongside our established professional networks, we are running a series of bespoke workshops and webinars for Chief Executives and Senior Managers that will harness the expertise of specialist trainers in an innovative way.

These events will enable our members to try something new and learn together, as they create their own approaches to contract discussions.
